Product Information

The Benjamin Britten 50p – not to be confused with the Benjamin Bunny 50p – has been around for quite a few years now, so there’s a good chance you will have come across one in your change. But how much is the Benjamin Britten 50p coin worth today? Interestingly, the Royal Mint does not currently have any versions of the Benjamin Britten 50p available to buy. An open-source repository of machine intelligence, accessible to anyone, anywhere, thus creating the conditions for open and permission-less innovation on a global internet scale. Also when you show to the spectators you have "3" coins, because of 2/5 of the coin being cut, you can see more of the "3rd" coin and have less of a hassle setting it up to be that way and holding it just right since more is seen then on normal flipper coins.

So do I recommend overall? Yes, I do. Should you replace this coin with all your other coins? I don't really know as I'm not a big coin worker, so this is good for me to have ready on me at all times and still do all the effects you can with the other coins. If you are a big coin person, this might be a very good alternative for you, but I would still hold on to your other flipper, bite coins, ect. You never know if you might still need them one day. To pretty much explain how the ButterCoin is different is like Dano said, it has a different cut where about 2/5 of the coin can be rubbed away/ "bitten," ect. Because of that, the handling is alittle more different and you don't need 2 cuts. After turning down the prospect of moving to Vienna for postgraduate study, Britten’s first job after leaving the RCM was working in the BBC. Whilst at the Corporation, Britten met the Anglo-American poet, W. H. Auden, who was to have a profound impact on his life and sexuality, something that Britten had yet to come to terms with. Over the next three years, Britten produced many pieces for radio, cinema and theatre and began to find his feet as a composer.

Britten was born on 23rd November 1913 in Lowestoft, Suffolk. Britten’s father, Robert Britten, was a dentist and his mother, Edith, worked at Charing Cross Hospital. Britten contracted pneumonia at the age of three and nearly died. He eventually pulled through but not without long-lasting damage to his heart, a condition that doctors assured his parents would prevent Britten from ever leading a normal life.

2013 Benjamin Britten 50p Coin

In 2005, Phillips designed the 50p coin that commemorated the 250th anniversary of Samuel Johnson’s dictionary. Somewhat more relevant, that too featured words. For Phillips, the inclusion of text was a no-brainer, saying to the Guardian in 2013 ‘Who wants to look at a dull picture of an uninteresting old man, even if they are wonderful composers or talents?’ Why was it made and what does it commemorate? In terms of rarity, a mintage of 5.3 million is fairly average and means that the coin itself is not especially rare.
